Celestial grabs dog food

Chapter 2

"One, two, three, four, five, go up the mountain to fight tigers." Gou Sheng pointed at Dacao's finger and said again.

Dacao counted his fingers like a dog again, but unfortunately he couldn't count right again, either he missed the number, or his fingers were not flexible, so he didn't count correctly.

There should be more of this nursery rhyme later on, but Gou Sheng can’t remember it anymore. Besides, what is a “nursery rhyme”... Weird things like this that often pop up out of nowhere, two or three years ago, the dog Liu would tilt his head and think for a while, after the stigma got bigger and he had two younger sisters, Dacao and Xiaocao, he no longer had time to worry about this problem...

"Stigma, count it!" Gou Sheng said as he slapped away the two fingers that had been stuffed in his mouth.

The column head shrank back a bit, and finally took his eyes off the steaming earthen pot on the clay stove.

"One, two, three, four, five, seven..."

Then, there was an extra little finger.

Gou Sheng glanced at Zhutou expressionlessly, and Zhutou hid his hands behind his back guiltily.

I have been teaching for more than a year, and I can't count from one to ten, let alone add and subtract!

As for why Gousheng can use some strange symbols to calculate a daily salary of six copper coins, and eight days is 48. Even Gousheng himself doesn't know. Liu Datie and his wife Li Dahua didn't even have any doubts. If it falls between the legs, it will be wrong!There's nothing wrong with being smart!What's more, there are several mouths in the family waiting for wages to buy food. Li Dahua's stomach is full again, and seeing that there is another mouth in the house, there is no time to think about it. If you have the time, it is more important to serve those acres of barren land!

After giving birth to the leftover dog, Liu Datie sold all the good land in his family, leaving only half an acre of lean land.In the past few years, Liu Datie and Li Dahua have been working from dawn to dusk, working desperately to open up a few acres of wasteland. At the beginning of last year, they took almost all their family savings and went to the county government to buy two acres of them under their own name, and the other few acres. It is only planted temporarily, and the government or the rich can take away the hard-earned land at any time...

"Count it again!",

Gou Sheng picked up the sleepy Xiaocao, supported her limp body, and asked the little girl to stand and play for a while.

Either missed this or missed that, after repeating the wrong count for the third time, Gou Sheng finally couldn't help but slapped the black paw on the column head.

Zhutou covered his hurt hand, and was about to cry when his mouth shrunk.

"Cry a little and try!" Gou Sheng said fiercely.

The big grass on the side was also frightened and shrank to the side.

Gou Sheng hugged Xiaocao with one hand, "Extend your hand!"

The column head hesitated and handed over his hand.

The ten fingers pointing at the capital of the column slowly counted again.

"Dozens of times, count it for me later!"

Stigma withdrew his hand, obediently looked at his fingers and began to count repeatedly.

Gousheng carefully picked out the mussels and small snails with a sharpened branch, washed them carefully, and corrected the wrong stigmas from time to time.

Add some edible meat that was finally cleaned up into the crock pot, and stew together randomly. At this time, Gousheng couldn't help but hug the grass and peek out together with the stigma and big grass—looking forward to it It's getting dark soon, and then Liu Datie and his wife can have dinner when they come back!

Although there is no oil and less salt, when you are hungry, the taste of sauerkraut, white cabbage stewed "hexian" and fish is still very attractive. Therefore, the wriggling stomach has a particularly strong sense of presence. I can't finish my saliva...

The room quickly darkened, and there was only one old oil lamp in the house, except when Li Dahua was mending clothes for the whole family, he would not light it easily.

Gou Sheng used a broken pot to put a half-burnt firewood into it, and used it as lighting.

"Snapped!"

Finally, a familiar voice came from the yard.

"Oh—father, mother, you are back!" Zhutou jumped up suddenly and greeted him.

"Look at my little sister, Dacao, don't touch the brazier, you understand!" Gou Sheng confessed, hooked out the big iron pot from the stove, wrapped it in a broken rag and brought out the handle that had been repaired several times, and poured it halfway Basin of hot water.

Liu Datie has gone to help Landlord Yang's house dig the land these days, while Li Dahua has been tending his family's several acres of wasteland with a six-month-old belly.

Gousheng quickly brought the hot water over.

Li Dahua washed his face indiscriminately, and let out a sigh of relief.

"Father, hurry up, hurry up, big brother cooked something delicious..." Zhutou shouted repeatedly.

Liu Datie answered in a naive manner, and patted the eldest son on the back, which was a compliment.This honest and excessive old man couldn't even speak a word to his own son for a long time!

"What are you touching, come in and eat!" Li Dahua yelled in the kitchen, sitting down on the wooden stool next to the clay stove.

The stool made several "squeaks".

"Mother." Dacao slowly moved out from under the stove, and called timidly.

"You son of a bitch, what's your name, what's your name, what's your name!"

Li Dahua, Liu Datie's mother-in-law, is a typical rural woman who has been oppressed by poverty and hard work for a long time. This type of women has almost the same problems as Li Dahua, and she is extremely irritable, especially impatient with the two little girls.

"Mother, what are you talking about, Dacao hasn't seen you for a day, what's the matter with calling you, just say no!" Gousheng went into the house and added a few pieces of charcoal to the brazier for lighting, his head was Said without lifting.

"Stinky bastard, I know how to teach my mother a lesson!" Li Dahua muttered resentfully, but he still didn't continue to lose his temper indiscriminately.

Liu Datie let Zhutou climb on his arm and walked in, Zhutou looked at him with a smile on his face.

Zhu Tou is so happy, of course, not because he can hang on to his father - working at Landlord Yang's house, in addition to his daily salary of six copper coins, he also manages a lunch - two cornmeal steamed buns mixed with white flour, porridge is enough , the important thing is that as long as it does not affect the work, the housekeeper will turn a blind eye to the matter of saving a steamed bun or half a steamed bun for the day laborers.

Liu Datie took out an oiled paper bag from his bosom, and it really contained a big yellow steamed bun!

Gou Sheng took it, cut it into five even pieces with a knife without hesitation, and pasted it on the edge of the pot for a while.If Liu Datie or Li Dahua were to split it up, they would be entangled for a long time.

"Let's eat! Let's eat!" Zhutou bounced and sat next to Li Dahua, "Mother, brother made some meat today!"

Li Dahua has been tired all day with a big belly, so naturally her mood is not much better, now she only hopes to have a quiet dinner and then climb into bed--Zigtou's temperament is optimistic, cheerful, carefree or something, in fact Just one or two fools, don't know how to look at people's faces, don't tell them, and they are heartless... Just like now, Li Dahua's complexion is obviously not good, so he is the only one who will go over, even the big grass who is more than one year younger than him knows Stay away—but, anyway, I'm still just a baby, it's normal to be ignorant...

Gou Sheng quickly filled the porridge, and specially gave the thickest bowl to Li Dahua.

For a moment, only the sound of swallowing and the clashing of bowls and chopsticks was left in the room.

Loach and eel meat have an earthy smell because there is no seasoning, mussels and snails are also very fishy, ​​even the smell of sauerkraut can’t be suppressed, but everyone will deliberately slow down chewing if they chew a small piece of meat Speed, so that the meat stays in the mouth for a while, and even a little bit of bone scum is chewed and swallowed...

After Gou Sheng finished his bowl of porridge and drank some vegetable soup, he held his piece of steamed bun in his mouth, hugged Xiaocao, and fed her half a bowl of porridge mixed with vegetable soup.

The stigma held the steamed bun slices, and slowly gnawed them into his mouth like a mouse, as if he was eating something to dilute the treasure.

If there is a mirror, Li Dahua will find that the stigma is almost exactly the same as hers!

"Father, eat your own! Stigma, don't ask for it from dad, dad has to work tomorrow, don't you understand!" Gou Sheng reminded.

The stigma answered vaguely.

Liu Datie grinned, in the end he tore a small piece and stuffed it into Xiaocao's mouth, before feeding the piece of steamed bun into his mouth with two big gulps.

Xiaocao wriggled her mouth hard, and two small dimples appeared on her face.

"You little girl, how can you eat so much..." Li Dahua muttered again.

Liu Datie just laughed, looking rather foolish.

Gou Sheng very much suspected that the shrewd butler of Landlord Yang's house back then compromised because he couldn't stand Liu Datie's stupidity!

……

Soon, the spring sowing will be over, and Landlord Yang's family will no longer need to hire day laborers.

Li Dahua drove Liu Datie to go out to look for work again, but she insisted on holding out all the work at home and in the field with her big belly.

"... There are still more than three months, why worry! There is still half a year before the grain harvest, and besides relying on those few acres of wasteland, what are you going to eat with us mothers... Xiaocao, that girl, wait until the weather gets warmer. It is necessary to make two gowns that can go out..."

In this kind of matter, Liu Datie has always been unable to compete with Li Dahua, who has a loud voice. Besides, Li Dahua is indeed a capable woman. The only thing that worries her is that she has a big belly now-but this is already her fifth child!

That night, Liu Datie packed a small package, that is, a can of homemade pickled radish and some clothes.

Gou Sheng also packed up some clothes, and tied up a tattered bed of old wadding with straw ropes.

"Gousheng, you, you can't go!" Liu Datie obviously couldn't do anything with his seven-year-old child, and he followed Gousheng at a loss, "Daddy earned money and brought you candy back to eat!"

Gou Sheng has not been coaxed by such words since he was three years old. He just climbed onto the kang without saying a word, pushed the stigma that was already sleeping with his limbs spread out, and got under the quilt...
